Pegler Yorkshire 

Unrivalled quality, innovation, 

customer service and long-term 

value for money 

As part of the global Aalberts Industries NV Group, 

Pegler Yorkshire is one of Britain’s largest and most 

respected manufacturers of innovative products for the 

demanding and diverse plumbing and heating industries. 

Pegler Yorkshire – a unique story 

It was in the late 19th century when two 

separate and altruistic companies set out on 

the long road to satisfying the needs of 

prospective customers and, of course, to 

profit in the process. Coincidentally located 

just 30 miles apart, each was driven by the 

same vision and ideals of a no-compromise 

culture. Cutting corners was never an option 

and only the best could ever be good enough. 

These two companies were Pegler and 

Yorkshire Fittings. Although in meeting all the 

challenges of the 20th and 21st centuries 

each has changed a great deal, the business 

ethos common to both never has. And now 

these two like minds have come together as 

Pegler Yorkshire – a single source of proven, 

flow control solutions for installers, 

specifiers and engineers in the domestic, 

public and commercial markets. 

Reputable and established brands 

Just as Pegler and Yorkshire have endured 

over such a long period, many of the brand 

names they have created over time are 

similarly very well established, in many cases 

as market leaders in their respective categories. 

The very extensive Pegler Yorkshire product 

range now comprises more than 15,000 lines 

– without rival for the choice and coverage 

it offers and for the number and scope of 

applications it satisfies. 

A mind for innovation 

Brands which endure and are not easily 

displaced must by definition be the product 

of innovative thinking and technology that 

continually stand the test of time. Pegler 

Yorkshire’s no-compromise philosophy will 

always put new product development high 

on the agenda, based on not only meeting 

the needs of today’s markets, but also 

anticipating and meeting customers’ 

future needs. 

The true value of knowledge 

As well as the benefit of unparalleled 

experience of the flow control market and 

its growth over many decades, Pegler 

Yorkshire has strong associations with 

major industry bodies such as those 

responsible for determining product and 

performance standards. 

The result is a comprehensive store of 

knowledge and reference which is invaluable 

in the key areas of research, development and 

dealing efficiently and accurately with 

customer enquiries – particularly with regard 

to product application and suitability. 

A charter for the best 

in customer service 

With so diverse a product range and customer 

base, Pegler Yorkshire’s no-compromise 

standards of quality, reliability and value 

for money naturally go hand in hand with 

the principle of delivering the best in 

customer service. 

Green awareness 

and responsibilities 

Developing products which reduce the carbon 

footprint by saving water and energy is only 

one side of the green issues coin. Pegler 

Yorkshire is also increasingly committed to 

recycling key production materials (such as 

brass), eliminating the need for excessive 

packaging wherever possible, and looking for 

new ways in which the company’s day-to-day 

operations can be improved to reduce waste 

and minimise the impact on the environment. 

Likewise, social responsibilities such as 

supporting employee and local community 

welfare are aspects of the very fabric and 

philosophy upon which both Pegler and 

Yorkshire were founded. 

Standards 

Pegler Yorkshire are dedicated to designing, 

developing and manufacturing products of 

the highest quality. We are members of 

numerous standards committees and take an 

active part in their development. Our products, 

where applicable, comply with the relevant 

British, European and International standards. 

Whatever the latest developments, we 

guarantee that our products will always 

meet the latest and highest standards.

Connectors 

Male connectors 

Tectite male connectors have either taper male 

BSP threads to ISO 7 (formerly BS 21) or parallel 

BSP threads to BS EN ISO 228:2003. Inert jointing 

compounds or PTFE tape should be applied to taper 

threads and good quality jointing washers should be used with 

parallel threaded fittings. 

Female connectors 

Tectite female threaded connectors have internal 

parallel threads to BS EN ISO 228:2003. 



Working temperatures 

Working temperatures and pressure tables 

The maximum temperature and pressure 

range in any system is dictated by the 

component with the lowest performance 

rating. Remember to pressure test 

all systems thoroughly after completion. 

Tectite installations may be tested to 

1.5 times their normal working pressure 

at ambient temperature. 

Achieving low temperatures 

For products used in water systems, working 

temperatures of less then 4°C can only be 

achieved if antifreeze is added to the system. 

Pressure Equipment Directive 

Since 30th May 2002 most pressure equipment 

and assemblies on the market in the 

United Kingdom have had to comply with the 

Pressure Equipment Directive (P.E.D.) 1999. 

Fittings are exempt from the P.E.D. unless 

they are incorporated into pressure equipment, 

meaning that all Tectite fittings are 

exempt. Tectite valves are also exempt.

Equipotential bonding 

All metallic pipework systems should comply with the equipotential bonding requirements 

of the current edition of the IEE electrical wiring regulations (BS 7671: 2001). After all 

plumbing work has been completed, always ensure guaranteed continuity checks are 

conducted by a qualified electrician in accordance with regulations.

Tubes, pipe and 

their compatibilities 3 

Copper tube 

Compatible copper 

tube must meet the 

requirements 

of BS EN 1057 for copper and 

copper alloy – seamless round 

copper tubes for water (and 

gas) in sanitary and heating 

applications. 

BS EN 1057 includes specified 

temper conditions (material 

strength) expressed as an ‘R’ 

number. Quite simply, the higher 

the number, the harder the 

material. As a result, tube 

diameter, wall thickness, length 

and the material temper must 

all be specified for full product 

designation. 

All Tectite 316 fittings can be 

used with copper tube, although 

in humid conditions some staining 

of the tube may be witnessed 

(see page 57 Phenolic foam 

section for details on moistureproof 

insulation). 

Yorkex* copper System tube is 

manufactured to the same 

standards as above and offers 

the same features and benefits. 

*Yorkex is a brand name of 

Yorkshire Copper Tube. 

COPPER TUBE BS EN 1057 COMPATIBILITY: Tectite Sprint, Tectite

fittings as part of a complete system an enhanced 

guarantee of 30 years will apply. 

Tectite fittings can also be used with copper tube to the above standards, in which case 

a 25 year guarantee will apply. 

Tectite-PEX 

barrier pipe 

Tectite-PEX is a highintegrity 

cross-linked 

polyethylene barrier 

pipe. Available in sizes from 10mm 

to 28mm in 3m and 6m straight 

lengths or 25m, 50m and 100m 

coils, it is suitable for use with 

Tectite Sprint and Tectite Classic 

fittings (use with T66 liners). You 

can use Tectite Sprint and Tectite 

Classic fittings on all PEX plastic 

pipes which meet BS 7291: Part 3 

(use with appropriate manufacturers’ 

liners). Tectite 316 fittings cannot 

be used with plastic pipes. 

For the ultimate in convenience, 

our Tectite Sprint and Tectite 

Classic ranges of fittings can 

also be used with PB pipe that 

conforms to BS 7921: Part 2 

(use with appropriate 

manufacturers’ liners). 

At the heart of Tectite-PEX is an 

EVOH (ethylene vinyl alcohol) 

resin oxygen barrier found 

centrally within the pipe wall. 

This barrier inhibits the ingress of 

oxygen – vital in central heating 

applications where permeation of 

oxygen into the system can cause 

radiator corrosion.

Flexibility 

Tectite-PEX is flexible enough 

to be cabled around obstructions 

and through joists with ease, 

saving on time and materials. 

The product’s flexibility also 

allows it to absorb energy and 

so reduce noise from water 

hammer and thermal movement. 

The pipe’s low thermal 

conductivity means exposed 

pipework in central heating 

systems is cooler to the touch 

than other materials. It is 

resistant to limescale and allbut 

eliminates the threat of 

burst pipes in cold conditions. 

Lightweight and convenient to 

handle and store, Tectite-PEX 

can be painted with either 

emulsion or oil-based gloss 

paints (NOT cellulose paint). 

Care must be taken to ensure 

that no paint comes into 

contact with Tectite fittings. 

Installation 

When installing Tectite-PEX, 

always remember to observe 

minimum bend radii to avoid 

kinking of the pipe. The Tectite 

accessories range includes a 

bend former for tight bends. 

Standards and approvals 

Tectite PEX adheres to all major 

trade specifications as follows: 

BS 7291 Specification for thermoplastic 

pipes and associated 

fittings for hot and cold water for 

domestic purposes and heating 

installations in buildings. 

BS 7291: Part 1 General 

requirements. 

BS 7291: Part 3 Specification 

for cross-linked polyethylene 

(PEX) pipes and associated 

fittings. 

Kitemark approved All 

Tectite PEX barrier pipe 

is Kitemark approved. 

WRAS Tectite PEX complies 

with The Water Supply (Water 

Fittings) Regulations 1999. 

DIN Tectite PEX barrier pipe 

fully meets the requirements 

of DIN 16892.

System design considerations 


3 

The following are some of the specific design considerations it is important to take 

account of when designing and installing pipework systems containing Tectite fittings. 

Thermal movement 

Thermal movement is a major 

consideration when designing 

plumbing and heating systems. 

Pipework systems expand and 

contract with changes in 

temperature. If they are fixed 

too rigidly and their movement 

restricted, the systems will be 

subject to stress which must be 

avoided. So it’s important to 

take the effect of thermal 

movement into account when 

designing or installing a system. 

It’s especially important to 

avoid stress concentrations 

between fixed points typically 

found at radiators, valves and 

other fittings. However, the 

ability of Tectite joints to 

rotate will accommodate 

movement within the system 

associated with expansion and 

contraction in certain design 

configurations. 

The following tables show 

thermal expansion details for a 

range of tube/pipe lengths and 

temperature changes. For further 

calculations please refer to the 

Pegler Yorkshire System Design 

Document or visit the website.

*Closed circuit systems only. 

Correct anchoring 

Always ensure the spur used 

to anchor the branch of a 

tee or connecting a radiator 

is long enough to allow normal 

thermal movement. Failure to 

observe this simple rule can 

lead to a failure. Incorporating 

expansion loops or bellows 

devices into the system 

can help guard against such 

problems, whilst a horseshoe 

link or offset (see diagrams) 

is an ideal way to counteract 

continual thermal cycling.

Thermal expansion 

Never use so-called ‘cold draw 

techniques’ when designing 

expansion joints into a system 

containing any Tectite push-fit 

fittings. These techniques may 

compromise the integrity of the 

surrounding joints. 

Design considerations 

Some contracts may still 

require that proprietary 

chemicals are used to cleanse 

and flush pipework before 

full commissioning. Tectite 

is compatible with a wide 

selection of products, to 

find out more contact us. 

Pipe restraint 

In any installation, the system 

should be supported to ensure 

the minimum stress is imposed 

on the tube/pipe and joints. 

For the maximum spacing of 

supporting brackets for internal 

installations, please see the 

tables (right). 

Insulation 

For all Tectite Systems, we 

recommend you adhere to the 

insulation requirements as 

specified in BS 5970. These 

requirements are equally 

applicable to plastic pipe and 

stainless steel tube.

Phenolic foam 

When using rigid phenolic foam 

(or other thermal insulation) to 

lag pipework, always remember 

to refer to the lagging 

manufacturer’s fixing 

instructions. To avoid the risk 

of external corrosion of copper 

pipework lagged with this foam, 

it is recommended that such 

insulation products be installed 

with a moisture barrier. 

Materials like Densopaste or a 

plastics covering applied by the 

tube manufacturer both provide 

an appropriate barrier between 

the outer surface of the tube or 

fitting and the foam. 

Some manufacturers of this type 

of lagging supply their products 

with an internal, factoryapplied 

sodium silicate or 

polyethylene barrier to prevent 

external corrosion problems. 

However, if you do need to add 

a barrier product, we 

recommend that all Tectite 

fittings are fully installed and 

pressure tested before these are 

applied and that they are 

completely coated. 

Covered pipework 

Making provision for thermal 

movement is vital where pipework 

of any material is installed 

under screed, plaster or passes 

through brick or blockwork. 

The preferred practice is to: 

pass tubes and pipes through 

sleeves or conduits or to lay 

them in ducts surrounded by 

loose, non-rigid material such 

as vermiculite or glass wool. For 

further information, consult the 

publication BS 6700:1997 Water 

Services in Buildings. 

Local Water Authority 

It’s wise to consult the local 

water authority when it comes 

to pipework accessibility. 

Tube bending 

Portable bending machines are 

ideal for copper tubes up to 

28mm. Most machines bend the 

tube between matched formers 

and back guides that support 

the outside diameter (OD) of 

the tube. This eliminates the 

risk of the tube wall collapsing. 

The point at which the bending 

pressure is exerted must be 

maintained at the correct 

distance in front of the former’s 

point of support. It’s also 

important to keep formers and 

guides well lubricated. Bending 

tubes correctly will avoid any 

wrinkling and flattening that 

can affect flow conditions. 

Using adjustable bending 

machines (which allow the 

pressure on the back guide to 

be adjusted) will ensure perfect 

bends every time so long as the 

root (inside) bending radius is 

at least 3 times the outside 

diameter of the tube. 

Pipework clearance 

When designing a Tectite 

System, please take care to 

ensure all joints can be made 

and demounted easily. Observe 

minimum gaps and insertion 

distances to ensure sufficient 

access for a demounting 

clip/tool, where applicable 

(see fitting spacing tables).

Spacing 

Fitting spacing 

Sufficient space must be left 

between fittings to allow 

room for dis-assembly tools to 

operate. See adjacent table 

for fitting spacing. 

Minimum projection 

Similar consideration should 

be given to the distance pipe 

stubs project through walls 

or bulkheads. Refer to table. 

Good practice 

Projection distances shown 

in the table also ensure that 

the subsequent installation 

will be a convenient distance 

from the wall. 




10mm to 28mm sizes 

The Tectite jointing system has been designed with easy, efficient installation in mind. 

Guide to 

installation 

The jointing procedures are 

almost identical for every type 

of Tectite fitting and 

compatible tube material. 

Where there are variations (such 

as inserting a liner into a PEX 

pipe) these are shown on the 

following pages and in the 

fitting instructions. To ensure 

the fittings stay clean and the 

‘O’ ring is protected from 

damage, never remove the 

fitting from its packaging until 

immediately prior to 

installation. 

The tube/pipe can be fully 

inserted by hand. A damaged 

tube/pipe end will require 

excessive force to be used. If 

this is the case you should 

check the tube/pipe is round 

and deburred before continuing. 

Tectite fittings with plain male 

ends must not be used directly 

with capillary fittings, since 

heating will damage the nonmetallic 

parts. Neither should 

plain ends on capillary fittings 

be used with Tectite. 

Heat should not be applied to 

Tectite fittings, directly or 

indirectly. They should be 

disconnected (where applicable) 

to avoid any possible damage 

to non-metallic parts if they are 

to be used on a system in 

conjunction with capillary 

fittings. Similarly, reconnection 

must not be considered until 

the heated tubes have been 

allowed to cool and have been 

flushed to remove any flux 

residues. Use pipe clips to 

secure finished installations and 

prevent vibration or movement. 

Painting 

Fittings can be painted with 

water-based paints. Oil-based 

or aggressive solvent paint 

should be avoided.

Tectite-PEX barrier pipe should 

not be joined directly to a 

boiler or other similar heat 

source. Connection should be 

via a piece of copper tube a 

minimum of 1m long. 

Preparation 

New tube ends should have any 

tape, labels or residual adhesive 

removed, taking care not to 

damage the tube in the process. 

Check the tube is round, clean 

and free from burrs and scores. If 

necessary, trim and prepare as 

below. 

We recommend the use of a good 

quality tube cutter with a sharp 

wheel for metal 

and plastic 

coated metal 

tube. 

Tube cutters 

For cutting PEX pipe we 

recommend the use of good 

quality pipe shears with a sharp 

blade. Clean, square cut pipe ends 

should have the pipe 

manufacturer’s liners fitted. 

Ensure the tube is cut square and 

all burrs and sharp edges are 

removed and is 

chamfered as 

shown in the 

illustration. 

Remove burrs 

Having deburred as above you will 

be left with a 1mm chamfer on 

the outside of the tube as 

indicated in the diagram. Wipe 

clean the tube end to remove all 

swarf and debris. 

If a deburrer is 

not available, a 

fine file should be 

used to prepare 

the tube end.

1. Select the correct size of 

tube and fitting for the job. 

Ensure both are clean, in 

good condition and free 

from damage, scores and 

imperfections. Do not use any 

additional lubricant or sealing 

compounds. Cut the tube square 

using a rotary tube cutter 

wherever possible. Take care 

to ensure that the tube end 

is deburred and chamfered. If 

the tube is oval or damaged, 

use a re-rounding tool. 

2a 

2. Remove any burrs or sharp 

edges from the external tube 

end using either the T110 

(Tectite Classic and Tectite Pro) 

or the T115 (Tectite Sprint and 

Tectite Advance) 3-in-1 

Tectite deburring, scribe tool 

and socket depth marker or the 

S120 deburring tool from the 


4 

XPress accessories range. Also, 

ensure the internal bore is 

deburred. For deburring 

stainless steel tube ends a fine 

toothed file should be used.

Then wipe clean the tube end 

to remove all swarf and debris – 

this helps to avoid damage to 

the ‘O’ ring when inserting 

the tube. 

2c 

An alternative method of 

preparing copper tube ends 

35-54mm before inserting into 

the fitting, is to use the 

appropriately-sized S122 

percussion deburrer (not for 

carbon steel tube) featured in 

the XPress accessories range. 

Place the cup of the deburrer 

onto the end of the tube and 

strike it with a sharp blow from 

a copper-faced hammer. As well 

as removing burrs and sharp 

edges, this tool also creates a 

slight taper that aids insertion 

into the fitting. If 10mm R220 

annealed copper tube is being 

used, ensure a T67 support liner 

is fully inserted into the tube. 

2d 

3. To make a perfect joint, the 

tube must be fully inserted in 

the fitting until it meets the 

tube stop. To confirm that this 

is the case, mark the socket 

depth on the tube or pipe using 

the T110/T115 socket depth 

marker (Tectite Classic, Tectite 

Pro & Tectite 316) or a tape 

measure and a marker/pencil. 

For the socket depth of each 

size of fitting, see tables. 

4a 

4. When jointing chrome-plated 

copper tube with Tectite 

Classic, Tectite Pro and Sprint 

fittings, scribe the tube using 

the T110/T115 (Sprint) scribing 

tool to ensure positive grab 

ring location. This helps to 

accommodate any variance in 

chrome plate thickness. Note: 

The scribing function is not 

suitable for stainless steel tube.

pipe and fitting for the job. 

Ensure both are clean, in good 

condition and free from damage, 

scores and imperfections. Do not 

use any additional lubricant or 

sealing compounds. Cut the pipe 

square using good quality plastic 

pipe shears with a sharp blade. 

2. Where Tectite-PEX barrier pipe 

is used, remove the label from 

the pipe end. If the pipe has 

been used on a previous 

installation cut the tube back to 

behind the teeth marks, ensuring 

there are no score marks on the 

pipe. Also ensure the correct 

pipe support liner from the pipe 

manufacturer is fully inserted 

into the pipe (T66 for Tectite 

flex).

additional lubricant or sealing 

compounds. Cut the tube square 

using a rotary tube cutter 

wherever possible. 

2a 

2. The plastic coating must be 

removed to the socket depth of 

the fitting using the S115 

stripping tool from the XPress 

accessories range. Select the 

correct sized tool, fully insert 

the tube and twist the tool 

until the excess of plastic is 

completely detached. 

3. Remove any burrs or sharp 

edges from the external tube 

end using an S120 deburring 

tool from the XPress accessories 

range. Also deburr the internal 

bore. If using plastic coated 

tube, the use of the S115 tool 

(as point 2), will deburr the 

inside of 15mm to 28mm tube. 

The same tool will also deburr 

the outside of plastic coated 

tube – insert the tube into 

the opposite end of the tool 

and twist. 

Proceed to jointing (see next 

page). 





Jointing 

1. To make a perfect joint, the tube or pipe must be fully inserted 

in the fitting until it meets the tube stop. To confirm that this 

is the case, mark the socket depth on the tube or pipe using 

the appropriate socket depth marker or a tape measure and a 

marker/pencil. For the socket depth of each size of fitting, 

see tables on page 58. 

1 

NOTE: Tectite Sprint and Tectite Advance fittings must not be 

used with the male ended fittings from other Tectite ranges 

(except T526S). Other third party male ended products should 

not be used with any Tectite fittings. 

Do not use Tectite fittings on gas services. 

Tectite Classic fittings do not provide electrical continuity, other 

Tectite fittings only provide electrical continuity when installed 

with metal tube. 

2. Inspect the fitting ensuring that the grab rings/‘O’-rings have 

not been contaminated with grit or debits. Insert the tube/pipe 

into the mouth of the fitting to rest against the grab ring. 

2 

3. Push the tube firmly with a slight twisting action until it 

reaches the tube stop with a positive “click”. 

4. Ensure the depth insertion mark corresponds with the mouth of 

the fitting and then pull firmly on the tube to ensure the fitting 

is secure. 

NOTE: We recommend all systems are thoroughly pressure 

tested to 1.5 times working pressure before the hand-over to 

the customer.

Although manufactured to a different design, jointing tubes in sizes from 35mm 

to 54mm with Tectite Pro and Tectite 316 fittings is basically the same as it is 

at smaller sizes. 

Preparation 

The first thing to consider when 

it comes to installation of 35mm 

to 54mm fittings is whether you 

plan to demount any fittings in 

the system on a regular basis. If 

you do, then we recommend you 

replace the standard end cap 

with the appropriately sized TDX 

demounting end cap. 

To ensure the fittings stay clean 

and the 'O' ring is protected 

from damage, never remove the 

fitting from its packaging until 

immediately prior to installation. 

When it comes to tube end 

preparation and socket depth 

marking for jointing with 35mm 

to 54mm fittings, follow the 

same routine as outlined in the 

preliminaries, tube preparation 

and installation tips sections for 

10mm to 28mm fittings on the 

previous pages. 

1. Insert the tube through the 

end cap to rest against the 

grab ring. 

2. Now push the tube firmly 

with a slight twisting action 

until it reaches the tube stop 

with a positive ‘click’. 

3. Ensure the depth insertion 

mark corresponds with the 

mouth of the fitting, then pull 

firmly on the tube to ensure 

that the fitting is secure. 

NOTE: We recommend all 

systems are thoroughly 

pressure tested to 1.5 times 

working pressure before the 

hand-over to the customer.

Demounting 

How to demount Tectite Classic, Tectite Pro and Tectite 316 fittings from pipework. 

Demounting 

Tectite Classic, Tectite Pro and 

Tectite 316 fittings in sizes 

10mm to 28mm can all be 

disconnected as described below. 

Tectite Sprint and Tectite 

Advance fittings are not suitable 

for disconnection. Ensure the 

system is de-pressurised and 

drained. 

1 

1. Place the forks of the 

disconnecting tool around the 

fitting assembly. The fork side 

carrying the Tectite brand logo 

should be positioned around the 

tube/pipe, with the opposite 

side around the neck of the 

fitting. 

2. Squeeze the disconnecting 

tool with one hand until the 

release collar in the fitting is 

depressed. With the other hand, 

twist out the tube/pipe using 

the thumb as a lever against the 

tool to assist disconnection. 

3. Check the fitting and 

tube/pipe for damage before 

remaking the joint. 

4 

4. The plastic disconnecting clip 

may be used where only where 

an occasional disconnecting 

facility is required. 

(You cannot demount Sprint or 

Advance fittings) 

Demounting 

with TDX 

demounting 

end caps 

Tectite Pro and Tectite 316 

fittings in 35mm to 54mm sizes 

are supplied with conventional 

black end caps. If you intend 

to demount the fitting on a 

regular basis, a TDX demounting 

end cap should be purchased 

separately and substituted for 

the standard end cap. A DTX 

Tectite end cap tool will also 

be required. 

Due to the potentially high 

frequency with which TX61/TS61 

stop ends may be demounted, 

they are supplied with the TDX 

end caps fitted as standard. 

Demounting the fitting from 

the tube is a simple process 

when TDX demounting end caps 

have been installed in the 

fittings. Ensure the system is 

de-pressurised and drained. 

1. To remove the tube from the 

fitting, insert the prongs of the 

Tectite DTX end cap tool in the 

recesses in the status indicator 

(2) and turn anti-clockwise 

fully. The status indicator will 

withdraw into the fitting, 

indicating that the fitting is in 

the de-mountable position. 

Using a ‘clockwise’ twisting and 

pulling action the tube can now 

be removed. 

2. Before reusing the fitting, the 

status indicator must be returned 

to the mounted position 

(protruding). 

Important: If the status 

indicator is not in the 

protruding position, the 

assembly will not withstand 

full system pressure.

Standard 

black end caps 

Fittings with standard black end 

caps can be demounted from 

the tube by unscrewing the end 

cap with the Tectite DTX end 

cap tool and snipping off the 

grab ring with side cutters, 

discarding both grab ring and 

‘O’ ring. A new grab ring and ‘O’ 

ring must be used when 

reassembling the fitting 

(see the disassembly section).

316 fittings is easily achieved 

by disassembling the fitting. 

1. Have replacement parts for 

the discarded items ready for 

insertion. Using a spanner on 

the fitting flats to prevent the 

fitting from rotating, insert the 

Tectite DTX end cap tool into 

the slots in the end cap. 

Turn the tool anti-clockwise to 

unscrew the end cap and slide 

it along the tube away from 

the fitting body. 

2. Pull the tube out of the 

fitting body. 

3. Remove and discard the 

‘O’ ring. 

4. Remove and retain the 

alignment ring. 

5. Snip off the grab ring with 

side cutters and discard. 

Reassembly 

Tectite Pro grab rings (TX105) 

and Tectite 316 grab rings 

(TS106) are not interchangeable. 

Care must be taken when 

replacing grab rings to ensure 

that only the correct grab ring 

is used. 

1. Before re-assembly have 

replacement parts for the 

discarded items ready for 

insertion, ensuring all the 

components are clean and the 

‘O’ ring is lubricated using S130 

Silicone lubricant from the 

XPress accessories range. 

Replace the components in the 

correct order, as shown, and 

check they are fully seated in 

the fitting body. 

Note: The grab ring operates 

with an interference fit in the 

body to provide electrical 

continuity. Therefore, the end 

cap must be tightened down 

flush with the fitting body. 

2. Screw the end cap back into 

the fitting until hand tight. 

If resistance is felt and the end 

cap is not flush with the fitting 

body, remove the end cap and 

ensure the grab ring is fully 

located i.e. fully in contact with 

the alignment ring. Again screw 

the end cap into the fitting 

until hand tight. Temporarily 

insert a 300mm length of 

deburred tube into the fitting 

BUT NOT THROUGH the grab ring 

to help locate the demount 

tool. Tighten the end cap a 

further 8mm to 10mm. Remove 

the tube. 

3. Before reinstalling the fitting 

back into the system, check the 

end of the tube for damage. If 

the tube is scored or damaged, 

remove the affected section 

with a tube cutter and prepare 

the tube end as described in 

preliminaries and tube 

preparation (page 58). 

4. Reinsert the tube into the 

fitting up to the tube stop, 

ensuring the socket depth mark 

corresponds with the mouth of 

the fitting and that the finished 

joint is secure. 

Replacement 

‘O’ rings 

TX100 replacement 'O' rings 

and TX105/TS106 grab rings 

are available (sizes 35mm to 

54mm) in the event that any 

are lost or damaged on-site. 

We recommend the use of 

S130 Silicone lubricant grease 

available from the XPress range 

to aid insertion of the replacement 

'O' ring into the fitting 

as these 'O' rings are supplied 

unlubricated. 

Once the end cap has been unscrewed the other components can be removed and replaced if necessary.
